About the Substack

35 years in tourism, almost all of it in Mexico. I put places on the map. Travel writing from the inside, and stories from a life held together with duct tape and wire ties.

About Kay Walten

Six months in Mexico became 27 years. A travel business built without a phone line, caves nobody had mapped, a dead body or two. I'm telling all of it now. And sometimes I go somewhere and report back.
